Great baked goods! Their scones are AMAZING!

Rebecca Duke

Absolutely fell in love with this place!! We were traveling and looking for a safe place to eat with celiac/severe gluten allergy as well as dairy free. The fact that Portia’s entire menu is gluten free and vegan was AMAZING so everything was completely safe!! We drank the mushroom lattes and split the breakfast burrito bowl and a waffle - the food was out of this world. Everyone on staff was so kind and in a great mood, and the space is cozy and colorful. Will definitely back if we find ourselves in Columbus again!

Excellent burgers! Great option for celiacs, staff is very knowledgeable. Gluten eating dad says if all GF was that good he would never eat gluten again 🤣

Ash Holbert

They are amazing with allergies. They have great gluten free pizza and a tone of options. The gluten free cookie and Sunday is amazing!

I was in Columbus for a MTG tournament, and was unfamiliar with the area. I searched for gluten free food, not expecting to find much, but I found Forno. Not only was Molly the waitress absolutely phenomenal. (And she definitely deserves a raise) My experience there was beyond amazing. I've never had a pizza so delicious, I've never had FOOD so delicious. Let alone, a GLUTEN FREE pizza! I liked Forno so much that during my weekend in Columbus I HAD to go there a second time because I wanted to experience it again before I left. 10/10 would go there again, I'd drive from Detroit to Columbus just to experience Forno again.

One of the best gluten free places I have ever been. The wait staff is so knowledgeable when it comes to gluten free, the menu is so inclusive. I love it here so much! OH and the GLUTEN FREE chicken tenders… so good!!

Paul Hansen

Probably the best gluten-free pizza I’ve had in Columbus

6-1-Pho is the restaurant I most regularly frequent in Columbus. I like it a lot and the prices are good, the food is even better and the workers are always friendly. What I like about this place is the food can satisfy a meat eater, a vegan, or a gluten free person all the same. I generally get the marinated tofu pho and my partner the chicken pho- both are great and I think their broth is perfect. They started using flatter noodles which are less good than the more round noodles they used to use so I hope they switch back! I get to go and they have this down to a science- they have a good packing system that makes sure you don’t spill and the food tastes good when you get it home.

I would give 1000 stars if I could. I have a gluten and dairy intolerance and our server, Tyler, made sure I was eating GOOD. He got the kitchen to make gf/df bread specially for me, and was super accommodating explaining the menu items in depth and offering suggestions. He even brought me a plate of steamed veggies with my chicken & pasta. I ended up getting the pasta-your-way with gf gnocchi and grilled chicken, and he brought me a side of steamed veggies. He was accommodating, friendly, and on top of everyones table around us with the same level of service. Did I mention this was Valentine's day, one of their busiest days? This is going to become a regular restaurant for me, thank you Marcella's and thank you Tyler!!

Nathan Morse

Delicious food from delightful people! Also, their soup of the day is always vegan and gluten free — so inclusive!

John Edwards

Had adequate parking. The dining area is large and can accommodate large parties. The manager was helpful and explained where everything was. There is a salad bar with a variety of healthy items. You will pay between $10-$15 for a sandwich. All foods served are free from dyes, artificial trans fats and flavours, processed MSG's, and high fructose corn syrup, according to the menu. I had the Ruben, and it was the best sandwich I've had in a long time. I also had a salad, which was great. I highly recommend Jason's Deli if you're in the area. They do have gluten sensitive and vegetarian options. Jason's Deli is a chain resteraunt, which we didn't know until we did some research, with restaurants in 28 states. This is a family owned chain and is in the top 500 for resteraunt chains.

I have celiac disease and need to be careful with gluten and cross contamination. Red Robin offers gluten free options and dedicated fryers which is usually great. This location has unfortunately glutened me twice within the past year, first with including breaded jalapeno coins in my burger, and then with giving me a normal gluten bun instead of a gluten free bun. If you have any allergies, be careful with this location.

Jennifer Fagert

The food and service were amazing, with many gluten-free and vegetarian options for those with dietary needs. The serving sizes are on the smaller side, which we preferred because we were able to finish our meals without being too full. The many of the vegetables that come with the main courses are shredded, which disappointed my mom. My mom slso ordered one of the house wines, which she said was not the best. Our server was very attentive without being overbearing and managers take the time to make sure everyone is enjoying the food, but we did wait around 40 minutes for our food. The atmosphere is VERY noisy and can quickly overstimulate people with sensory sensitivity, like myself. My parents typically do not get overstimulated and they even said it was too noisy. It was super easy to make reservations using Open Table! Overall, the food was good, but the atmosphere was way too noisy and we had to wait a while for our food.

Jennifer Noelle

Came after a show at Nationwide Arena - very convenient and walkable. Pros: They were able to get us in about 30 minutes before our reservation on a crowded night, our server was incredibly friendly and helpful, fun atmosphere. Guac, street corn and mixed drinks were delicious. Several gluten free options. Cons: three people ordered the carne asada and found the steak to be tough and chewy, almost inedible. Somewhat pricey.

Dan Scharnagl

There are a ton of GF options. They have 2 gluten free crust options. A square gluten free crust, about 10x10. And a round GF cauliflower, about 10" diameter. 3 GF beer options as well.

Andrew Pitonyak

Staff is always great / helpful... A few changes to note. Tea is no longer free with your meal. $1.50 so reasonable. The soda machine is $3. Touch screen to place your order. Be careful, there is a 3 piece wings and a 5 piece wings meal. Be sure to order the right one. You can refill your own drinks. They have french fries, spicy ketchup and spicy ranch. They have also added chicken tenders. Now back to your regularly scheduled review. I had a perfect chicken wing today... One of the few places I can get spicy food. Wings holy with mac and beans is my go-to. If you want it super spicy, ask for unholy, That's where the real spice is. There are tables set up inside and, when it is warm, tables set up outside. Every Tuesday the entire family comes so they can get their gluten-free chicken. I also really like the environment. The people seem to get along really well together and are kind to their customers. They have high chairs if you need them and they also just got these cute caution signs that look like bananas. They really compliment their banana pudding. The mac and cheese has changed yet again, very much for the better. I really enjoyed my mac and cheese, as well as my beans. They even have a Mac and cheese with nuggets dish. If you want a vegan option they have Nuggs, which is a plant-based alternative to chicken. I've never tried a nugg. They have added salads They have a Coke machine now so you can have Coke products or sweet tea. The sweet tea is half the price of the coke.

Their gluten free pizza is amazing!

We ate on the patio. 3 of us, early evening. The guys got specialty burgers and I ordered a chicken n bacon sandwich, no bun. I asked for them to make sure there was NO pepper or spices on the sandwich. Then I asked if they had fried peppers of any kind and if so, do they fry them in the same fryer as the FF. They said they jave them, but they can fry my FF in their gluten free fryer. So I ordered this. Another server brought our food. It had a few very appealing fried vegetable circles on my chicken sandwich. I asked what they were. They put fried jalapeños on my chicken sandwich! After I spent time explaining why I could not eat peppers of any kind. They were directly on my chicken so they had to make a completely new one. My guys had gotten their food so they were just about done by the time my corrected food came out. The chicken did not have spices on it, but they again screwed it up. I had asked for them to just not serve the bun and no sauce. I should have gotten lettuce, tomato, bacon, cheese and chicken, plus a side of FF. Instead, I got one small piece of chicken with a piece of cheese and an order of FF. The chicken was good, even though not what I ordered. I could still taste a bit of heat to it- they probably did not have a clean spot to grill it so it may have had a bit of pepper. We did not go inside so I do not know the condition of the interior. The server was pleasant. The outside dining area was relatively clean. We would probably eat there again if we were in the area.

Lauren Harris

Our server, Stephanie, was amazing, the food was absolutely incredible. An awesome option for gluten free people!

Liz Love

Love the gluten sensitive options!

Brian Michaels

Not many gluten free options and brisket was all fat and no meat.

Rebecca Smith

This is the best Italian food I’ve had in a long time. Easily the best Italian food I’ve had in Ohio. I cannot recommend enough. Personally, I eat gluten and dairy free. There were able to accommodate for me and our server, Shelby, was wonderful. The bruschetta was so yummy. They even brought me out gluten free bread and oil when we sat down. I got the gluten free pasta with marinara and grilled chicken and WOW it was AMAZING, the sauce was incredible. AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE BUTTERSCOTCH CRÈME BRÛLÉE (it’s not dairy free but the whole table LOVED IT). I cannot wait to come back!!!

Kim Burgess

Place was absolutely slammed with post church crowds when we went, but thanks to excellent management and really hard working employees everything from ordering to receiving food was extremely quick and easy. The manager took our order, and was super gracious about a gluten free dietary need in our party. He was very proud to let us know they were one of the only fast food chains to offer a gluten free burger, with a safely packaged gluten free bun and a burger prepared on a clean grill. He also bragged about how great his staff (mostly teenagers) are, which to me is just another sign of a well run establishment. Would absolutely recommend this Culver's to anyone.

Stephanie Wood

My son has celiac disease and we ordered the grilled chicken sandwich with gluten free bun and told them it was an allergy order. The man taking our ordered repeated that it was Gluten free allergy and when we went to the window to pick up our food, the person at the window said... "Thank you for waiting while our staff changes their gloves for your allergy order!" I can't explain to you how good and safe I felt to let him eat. It is scary how sick he can get just from cross contamination. SO THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!! Our food was wrapped separately and he didn't get sick!!!

Bethany George

Ive had their burgers before, which are very yummy. But a friend said “lets do breakfast here”. I was like “they have breakfast?!” They sure do!! I had the mushroom frittata, which was exquisite! And the fresh squeezed OJ was the perfect touch. My friend had the breakfast hash, as shes gluten free and dairy free. And she loved every bite. The outside patio was perfect in the morning. Highly recommend.

Madison Carr

Nice causal place to eat, offers a full bar with indoor and outdoor seating options. They do have a few gluten-free options. Their salads were amazing and came in a huge portion!

Louis Charles

My wife and I love to eat at Aladdin. We get vegetarian options such as the sampler platter appetizer with grape leaves, falafel, hummus, tabouli, etc. We also have dessert here too because they often have gluten free cookies.

Michele Johnson

I have Celiac, and It is so comforting to eat somewhere that is 100% gluten-free.

Josephine Lung

My favorite sushi place!! Really good for gluten free people, they have gluten free crunchy stuff, I don’t know the actually name of it. I like that you can build you own rolls. I regularly eat here and am always satisfied. Actually I want some right now!!

Sara Freeburg

Plenty of vegan and gluten free options! Great pizza and tap selection. Located I the Franklinton art district

Christopher M

Don't dare to go here and say anyone has a gluten allergy. Once told the person proceeded to grab everything with the gloves used for everything with gluten.

Jordan Hall

Brought someone with a severe gluten allergy to this location and the employees went above and beyond to ensure she had a safe experience including cleaning all surfaces and tools and using separate gloves, knives, surfaces, etc. Truly 12/10 service. Great food too.

Dough Mama never disappoints. Neighborhood staple and great breakfast/lunch/brunch spot. I have dreams about the GF Lemon Poppy Seed Muffin… it’s THAT good and gluten free. Come early… they usually run out the most popular baked goods depending on how busy the morning is but there is something yummy for everyone. Seating includes outdoor Parisian café style on N High Street (can be a bit loud due to traffic but it’s fun watching frequent + diverse passerby’s in this central heart of the southern Clintonville neighborhood. They also have a small indoor dining room and a larger outdoor patio out back surrounded by plants. That is the more intimate dining option and where I usually take friends from out-of-town for brunch.
